About Muhlbach Im Pinzgau - presentation, information, photos and recommendations
Mühlbach im Pinzgau - small district at the large Wildkogel!
Mühlbach im Pinzgau is located nicely at the southern foot of the Wildkogel in Oberpinzgau in the Salzburger Land. As a part of the district Bramberg, the resort stretches up to an altitude of 810 metres. Located at the homonymous stream, Mühlbach fascinates with its originality and down-to-earth character. The emerald mining around Mühlbach has ever been a reason for amazement to visitors. As the region once used to be the centre of copper ore mining, you will still find many devises reminding of these times, e.g. the Geological and Mining Resarch Centre or the Forestry Management building. Come and experience the enchanted atmosphere in romantic Mühlbach, at the 2,225 m high Wildkogel.
SkiThe "Kitzbühel" lift pass, with its 179 km of piste (215 km with ski routes!), offers perfect skiing pleasure for beginners, experts, pros and families alike. A total of 54 lifts bring you comfortably to the pistes on the Gaisberg, Pengelstein, Hahnenkamm, Kitzbüheler Horn and Resterhöhe mountains as well as up to an altitude of 2,000 m. Equipped with the most modern snow-making facilities, the Kitzbühel ski area makes sure to continuously tend to their piste conditions. Acces can be found in Hollersbach or Pass Thurn.
The main attractions are the speed runs, carving runs and slalom runs, but a real treat is a ride along the steepest run in the world, the "Streif" – an absolute must for passionate winter sports fans! It's here where the traditional Hahnenkamm race takes place each year. The Ganslernhang, one of the last classic slalom pistes in world championship games, is a very popular run. With the 3S lift, a great ski circus came into being, and allows for a real ski safari from Kirchberg over to Kitzbühel and Jochberg, and all the way to the Resterhöhe ski arena in Pass Thurn!
The Kitzbühel snow park is a true boarder's paradise: with a quarter pipe, tables, slides and jumps, snowboarders will surely be able to get the blood pumping while showing off what they've got. For families, easy runs can be found on the Gaisberg, Ehrenbachhöhe and Pengelstein mountains. Around the Bichlalm, Pengelstein and Steinbergkogel mountains, you'll also find numerous marked ski routes of all levels of difficulty as well as gorgeous deep snow runs off-piste. For those who just can't get enough, skiing by floodlight is quite a pleasant way to spend those last few minutes.
Something a little extra for guests: the ski area offers over 40 free Wi-Fi hotspots! After just a few easy to manage steps, you can access the Internet and share your favourite moments with your loved ones back home.
Sporty diversity away from the pistes can be found on winter hikes, horse-drawn sleigh rides and on the ice. Especially interesting is the world's probably longest toboggan run at the Wildkogel. The starting point is easily reached with the Wildkogel lift, followed by a winding decsent right down to Bramberg covering a distance of 14 km and altitude difference of 1,300 m. Generally you will find Mühlbach being a little quieter than other resorts, however if you still don't want to miss out on après ski you can just pay a visit to Neukirchen. There will find an opportunity to shake a leg, for instance in the "Pinzgauer Kanne" or the "Almbar".
The region Oberpinzgau is a real paradise for cross-country skiers. A special treat is the 200 km long Pinzga-trail, which connects nearly all the resorts in the area. Directly in Mühlbach and the neighbouring resorts Neukirchen and Bramberg, 45 km of tracks are waiting for you. Nearly all of them are classified as easy, however 5 km are also known to be very challenging. The high-altitude track in Krimml (approx. 12 km away) and the flood-lit trail "Wennseloipe" in the resort Bramberg are also free to explore.
